Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of cycling computer technology, specifically, it relates to a protective case for cycling computers based on hard plastic. Background Technology
[0002] In cycling activities, cyclists frequently encounter various unexpected situations, such as falls, collisions with obstacles, or riding on bumpy roads. In these situations, the cycling computer, as a crucial device for recording vital cycling data, is highly susceptible to severe impacts. A cycling computer protective case, as a specialized protective device, provides additional cushioning protection, effectively resisting external impacts and preventing scratches and abrasions. This reduces the damage caused by impacts and scratches, ensuring the cycling computer operates normally and stably, and guaranteeing the accuracy and reliability of the recorded data.
[0003] Currently, most computer cycling computer protective cases on the market are made of silicone. Silicone protective cases, with their soft and elastic properties, can be easily stretched and fitted onto the computer's casing, thus providing basic protection.
[0004] However, silicone protective cases have revealed many shortcomings in practical applications. One particularly prominent issue is the cumbersome and complex installation process. During installation, users must first slip one end of the protective case over the two corners of the same side of the cycling computer, then pull the case forcefully to deform and extend it. This process is repeated on the other side of the computer. This complicated installation method not only significantly increases the difficulty for users, requiring more time and effort, but also directly leads to low installation efficiency, causing considerable inconvenience and negatively impacting the user experience. Utility Model Content
[0005] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a protective case for a odometer based on hard plastic.
[0006] To achieve the aforementioned objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model includes:
[0007] The housing has an insertion end at its bottom for inserting a odometer, a support end on one side of the insertion end for supporting the odometer, and two locking ends at its top for locking the odometer, each locking end including an elastic element for contacting the odometer.
[0008] In this invention, the installation of the odometer requires only two steps: Step one, insert the odometer into the insertion end until it contacts the support end; Step two, press the other end of the odometer against the elastic element, causing the odometer to pass through the elastic element and abut against the snap-fit end. This allows the odometer to be connected to the odometer protective case in just two steps: insertion and snap-fit. Compared to existing technologies, there is no need to sequentially snap the corners of the protective case to the odometer. The two-step installation simplifies the odometer protective case installation process, reduces the difficulty of operation for users, and improves the user experience through efficient installation.
[0009] Preferably, the insertion end includes a first limiting plate and a second limiting plate, both of which are in contact with the wall of the code watch.
[0010] In this invention, after the code meter enters the insertion end, the movement of the code meter is restricted by the limiting plates one and two, thereby improving the connection stability between the code meter and the insertion end.
[0011] Preferably, the supporting end includes at least one supporting plate, the supporting plate including a supporting surface for supporting the odometer.
[0012] In this invention, after the odometer is inserted into the insertion end, the supporting surface of the supporting end contacts it, allowing the supporting plate to support the odometer. This ensures a stable connection between the odometer and the housing. By supporting the odometer with only two supporting surfaces, the overall weight of the odometer protective housing is reduced, improving the comfort of using the odometer protective housing.
[0013] Preferably, the snap-fit end includes a contact surface that is in close contact with the side of the speedometer.
[0014] In this invention, after the odometer enters the snap-fit end through the elastic element, the contact surface will fit against the side of the odometer, and together with the support end, the protective shell of the odometer will be firmly fitted onto the odometer, thus playing a role in protecting the outer shell of the odometer from scratches.
[0015] Preferably, the elastic element includes an elastic plate, which is connected to one side of the mating surface.
[0016] In this invention, when the odometer and the elastic plate are pressed down, the elastic plate will deform. When the odometer is fully inserted into the locking end, the elastic plate will elastically recover and fit against the odometer, so that the locking end and the corner of the odometer are stably connected.
[0017] In this utility model, the odometer protective case is made of ultra-light plastic material in one piece, which can adapt to the overall shape of the odometer and tightly wrap around the top and bottom sides of the odometer, providing basic protection for the odometer. This allows the odometer protective case to meet the lightweight requirements for carrying and use while providing protection for the odometer, which helps to meet the daily use needs of the odometer and its protective case.
[0018] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this utility model include:
[0019] (1) The present invention provides a odometer protective case based on hard plastic. Compared with the prior art, it does not require the protective case to be snapped together with the corners of the odometer in sequence. It can be easily installed in just two steps. This not only simplifies the installation steps of the odometer protective case, but also reduces the difficulty of operation for users. The efficient installation also improves the user experience.
[0020] (2) The present invention provides a odometer protective case based on hard plastic, which can provide protection for the odometer while meeting the lightweight requirements for carrying and use, and helps to meet the daily use needs of the odometer and the odometer protective case.

For a person skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in this application can be understood according to the specific circumstances.
[0035] This utility model embodiment is intended to introduce and explain the structural composition of a odometer protective case based on rigid plastic and the cooperation relationship between the various components. Unless otherwise specified, the size, material, and manufacturing process of each component in the odometer protective case in this utility model embodiment can be selected according to specific circumstances, and no special limitations or explanations are made here.
[0036] Furthermore, to provide the public with a better understanding of this utility model, certain specific details are described in detail in the following description. However, those skilled in the art can fully understand this utility model even without these detailed descriptions. Example
[0037] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 This embodiment discloses a protective case for a cycling computer based on rigid plastic, including a housing 1. Specifically, the housing 1 has a covering surface 11 along its circumference, and the housing 1 is attached to the cycling computer through the covering surface 11.
[0038] It should be noted that existing silicone computer case protectors weigh over 10g. When placed on the computer, they significantly increase the overall weight of the cycling computer, making it difficult to meet the lightweight carrying needs of cycling enthusiasts.
[0039] In this embodiment, the housing 1 is hollow, and only the parts that need to be attached to the odometer are retained around the housing 1. Through this design, the weight of the odometer protective case can be reduced to less than 10g. It is thin and light, and will not add too much weight and volume to the odometer, making it easy to carry.
[0040] Specifically, a button opening 5 is provided on one side of the housing 1. The position of the button opening 5 corresponds to the button position on the side of the cycling computer. By opening the button opening 5, the space for cycling enthusiasts to touch the buttons is expanded, avoiding obstruction of the use of the cycling computer and improving the user experience.
[0041] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 3 This embodiment discloses a protective case for a speedometer based on rigid plastic, including an insertion end 3.
[0042] Specifically, the insertion end 3 includes a first limiting plate 31 and a second limiting plate 32, both of which are in contact with the wall of the code meter.
[0043] In this embodiment, the first limiting plate 31 and the second limiting plate 32 are attached to the two sides with the largest area of the code meter, thereby restricting the degree of freedom of the code meter inside the protective shell, so that the code meter can only move within the gap between the first limiting plate 31 and the second limiting plate 32.
[0044] Specifically, the bottom of the insertion end 3 is provided with a support end 4 for supporting the odometer. The support end 4 includes two support plates 41, each with a support surface 42 for supporting the odometer. After the odometer is inserted into the insertion end 3 and moved to its bottom, it will contact the support surface 42 and be supported by the support plates 41, keeping the odometer within the odometer protective housing. In other embodiments, there is one support plate 41, and the width of the support plate 41 is half the overall width of the housing 1.
[0045] It should be noted that the middle of the insertion end 3 is open, and the bottom of the odometer is supported by the support end 4, so that the bottom of the insertion end 3 does not need to be sealed. This not only reduces the use of hard plastic, but also further reduces the weight of the odometer protective case.
[0046] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 This embodiment discloses a computer watch protective case based on rigid plastic, including a snap-fit end 2.
[0047] Specifically, the snap-fit end 2 includes a contact surface 21, which is in close contact with the side of the speedometer. One side of the contact surface 21 is provided with an elastic element for contacting the speedometer. The elastic element includes an elastic plate 22, which is connected to one side of the contact surface 21.
[0048] In this embodiment, the elastic plate 22 and the bonding surface 21 are integrally formed. When the code table moves towards... Figure 4 When the direction indicated by the middle arrow is pressed against the elastic plate 22, the elastic plate 22 will deform, and the odometer will enter the snap-fit end 2 through the elastic plate 22 and fit against the mating surface 21. After that, the elastic plate 22 will elastically recover and fit against the odometer, thereby completing the connection between the odometer and the snap-fit end 2.
[0049] In this embodiment, the specific installation steps for the code reader and its protective case are as follows:
[0050] S1. Insert the odometer into the insertion end 3 until it contacts the support surface 42 of the support end 4;
[0051] S2, Move the code table to... Figure 4Press in the direction indicated by the middle arrow, and the elastic plate 22 will deform. The speedometer will enter the snap-fit end 2 through the elastic plate 22 and fit against the mating surface 21 to complete the installation.
[0052] It should be understood that the above embodiments are only for illustrating the technical concept and features of this utility model, and are intended to enable those skilled in the art to understand the content of this utility model and implement it accordingly. It should not be considered that the specific implementation of this utility model is limited to these descriptions. For those skilled in the art to which this utility model pertains, several simple deductions or substitutions can be made without departing from the concept of this utility model. All equivalent changes or modifications made in accordance with the spirit and essence of this utility model should be covered within the protection scope of this utility model.
